12 different ways to say “no” in Spanish (B1)

I’m pretty sure all our students know how to say “no” in Spanish: no. It’s quite straight forward. But, what about saying “no” in different ways? “No” is fine, but sometimes is just too plain, so let’s learn another ways to say “no”.

In Spain is common to deny twice: – ¿Quieres algo de comer, Ana? (Do you want anything to eat, Ana?) – No, no, gracias. Acabo de tomarme un helado y estoy llena (No, no, thanks, I just ate an ice cream and I’m full). Let’s see another 12 ways to say “no” in Spanish.
